This is the 14th studio album and the companion album to The Marvelous Missing Link Lost which was released earlier in the year. It is also the second half of the third face in the new deck of joker’s cards. It was released at the annual Gathering of the Juggalos July 22 through the 25th. It is the group’s 35th overall release. The first half of this card “Lost” showed the darker side of our life here on earth. With tracks like Vomit, Confederate Flag, and Flamethrower taking listeners back to the more old school sound they were used to. How will “Found” stack up against the heightened expectations of their ravenous fan base?

Track list and ratings

Intro- A spoken word intro by Jumpsteady. Has a very Zen vibe and talks of finding safety in life through a higher power. 4/5

Found- This track has a simple beat with a minor piano backing. Shaggy starts the track with a verse that is reminiscent of his verse from Miracles. Violent J has the second verse and he brings his simple flow over the beat. The hook is very simple but easy to get into. Overall this track leads listeners into this album with a feel good vibe. 4/5

Get Clowned- This track is led in by the ringmaster which gives way to a killer bass thumping beat. The beat is full of honks, squeaks, and other carnival sounds. Violent J leads this one off and it works. Shaggy gives us a solid second verse that adds some edge to this hard beat. The third verse gets split by the two and it works really well. There is a little skit at the end of the track which is very funny. The hook is dope as hell. It is easy to see this track hitting all the right notes with their loyal fan base. 5/5

Ok- This track brings back that positive message. It reminds us that everyone goes through some crap and there is always an end to it. The verses are uplifting and the message hits home. The hook is so different from much of their catalogue but it works well to push that feel good vibe. 4.8/5

Lost At the Carnival- This track takes the listener back into the Dark Carnival. It tells a tale of losing your parents and all of the twists and turns to find them. Finding out in the end you are dead and it is a nightmare. This is a track with a very carnival backing to the beat. The verses are dope and weave the tale nicely. The hook is super simple but easy to get into. 4.5/5

Mr. White Suit- This song is another in the positive vibe. It tells of Mr. White Suit who goes around Detroit and as he passes people with disease, money problems, etc their problems are solved and made better. The verses are done well and the hook is easy to sing along with. 3.8/5

Pineapple Pizza- A more old school vibe with electric backing in this track. This tracks tells of a girl names Cindy who each of them have had relations with. They discuss the girl they both are with and in the end realize it is the same girl. The hook says it all “A hoe is a hoe.” 3.8/5

Juggalo Party- Another seriously feel good track here. The beat here is very “mainstream” but it works. The verses tell of a block party that everyone gets along and just has fun. It reminds listeners of Juggalo Island in its composition. The hook is simple and will go well in a concert scenario. 4/5

The Midway- A simple old school beat drives this track forward. The verses are told from the Carnies perspective. It describes some of the midway games and how they are rigged so no one can ever win. One of the best concepts on the album. 5/5

I Fucked A Cop- The beat here is a lot like Bazooka Joey it is hard hitting and has a really good bass hit in it. The verses tell how Shaggy met and eventually fucked a cop. The hook is decent and rounds out this track nicely. 4.5/5

The World Is Yours- Back to the feel good vibe with the beat and hook. The verses are once again uplifting and remind people how your life can shift simply by remembering the world is yours. 4/5

Dreams of Grandeur- A very twangy country sounding beat. Violent J tells a story about being in love with a crack head hooker. This track is so different it may have some fans skipping it on a regular basis. 3.5/5

I’m Sweet- A much more complex and interesting beat here. The verses are solid and flow well against the beat. The hook is very stripped down and simple. J “sings” part of the hook and that really doesn’t work here. The tone of the track is good but easily forgotten. 3.5/5

Time- The album ends the way it began, with positive vibes. This tracks talks about how time is the only thing that is a constant. No matter where the road leads time marches on and we have to keep moving. The message here is nicely exposed in the hook. 4.3/5

Overall Rating: 4.2/5

Conclusion: This album does a lot of things right but on two completely different paths. The first thing it does is push the old school wicked sound in tracks like Get Clowned, Lost at the Carnival, and The Midway. Old school Juggalos will dig these tracks without a doubt. The second path it goes down is a road of positive thinking. To fully understand the concept listeners must know the story telling ICP is famous for. It is without a doubt an album of two tales. Fans of all generations can find something to like in this album.
